Hi Guys,
Wanted to take a minute and brag on DD (remember, she's a chef).
She has finally gotten her catering website online at
http://www.cakesbychristen.com . It's not finished yet -- still some
bugs to iron out but there are a few photos of some of her cakes in the
Portfolio section. She also does catering but doesn't have any food type
photos up yet.
I know none of you would need her services. I just wanted to brag
on her a bit :-). She has just finished the Masters Course at the
Wilton Center outside of Chicago, IL. If you look at the cake photos,
the one of the large white wedding cake with the purple flowers is the
piece she did for her "final exam". The cake is not cake, it's
styrofoam, but the frosting and all of the decorations are made from
royal icing and look almost real. This stuff is NOT like the regular
roses, etc. that you see on most cakes and it really lovely. Also,
there is a cake with absolutely darling bumble bees that DD made from
fondant. I told DD that next time she makes them she needs to add what
we call "fairy dust" to the wings to make them sparkle. I'm not sure
what the fairy dust is made from (probably sugar) but it is edible and
sparkles beautifully.
Anyway, that all. Just wanted to take a minute and brag on DD.

You are right to brag ! I've just added several pounds by just looking at
the photos ;o)
Well done to your DD, and I wish her success !

The cakes are gorgeous. You might suggest, however, that she edit her home
page -- she says "I enjoy working people". Perhaps it would be better to say
"working with people."
